Hello everyone,
I have been a silent reader for some time now, but we have reached a point where I need your help.
The plot of land is already purchased. I have been working on creating a floor plan on my own for a while. Our architect has postponed the project for now due to lack of availability. However, since we don’t want to wait any longer, we are looking for a building partner.
We want to build a modern urban villa using solid construction, with a separate area for the grandparents (not a typical granny flat, but an internally separated living room, bedroom, and bathroom with only one entrance and a hallway on the ground floor).
Additionally, I would like to have a trench collector installed, connected to a heat pump. To support our own power supply, a photovoltaic system on the roof would be possible. Controlled mechanical ventilation would be the icing on the cake.
The plot size is 604m2 (6500ft2). It is located in a second row. The driveway is also part of our property. The previous owner subdivided their garden and then sold it to us.
I am attaching the current development plan (it is from before the subdivision). The hall shown on our plot no longer exists. I took the photo with south at the bottom and east on the right.
Perhaps someone has an idea of how the house could be positioned there. The possible building envelope would be 11x11m (36x36ft) or 11x12m (36x39ft). There should also be enough space for a double garage or a garage about 9 meters (30ft) long.
Maybe someone here knows a good architect, construction manager, or general contractor from the region (I’m not sure which option would be better here?). The building site is in Wuppertal.
If any further information is needed, I am happy to provide it. I appreciate any advice.

@kaho674 Actually, I was hoping for some constructive ideas from you. Because so far, I have really liked the suggestions I have read from other homeowners.vermilly schrieb:
@kaho674 Court jesters may be needed elsewhere, but not here in the forum to make snippy remarks."If you do not want to be my friend, then I will smash your skull."vermilly schrieb:
And if I were a professional, I wouldn’t be asking for help here. Please keep that in mind and don’t just have your “layman’s draft” traced over by a professional afterwards; instead, have them do the actual work. That way, it can also be discussed properly.
Using an app (floor plan app) does not mean you are able to design a house.

I have already revised my design. It will soon be submitted to a professional who will make it buildable. The worst plans are the ones that the draftsman has made suitable for approval. Then you’re stuck with sliding door wardrobes because in the tight dressing room, you’d pinch your fingers with hinged door wardrobes.

And even worse things came to light from the ground staff at the prefabricated houses... sliding doors would be the least of the problems.
